"Now, look here," said Luke. He put into his voice a calm that he did not feel. "Try to tell me just what happened. I can't advise you till I know that, even if I'm not the business-fool I seem to have proved myself to be. First of all, Osserman sent you some sort of word, didn't he?"
"Yes, of course."
"What was it?"
"It was a letter—just a personal letter."
"When did you get it?"
"About eleven this morning."
"So then you went over to the bank?"
"Yes."
"And asked to see this man Osserman?"
"Yes."
